Wednesday,
26 May 2010 - DaMarcus Beasley has been included the
United States' 23-man World Cup squad. The 28-year-old, who left Rangers
at the end of the season, only returned to the US team in March after a
nine-month exile from Bob Bradley's team. "He needed to make a
renewed commitment and do things as a player that makes his team better." Beasley, who has earned 90 caps for the US, played his last game
for Rangers on 9 March but has done enough to convince Bradley of his place in
South Africa.

West Ham's Jonathan Spector, Fulham's Clint Dempsey and ex-Everton
midfielder Landon Donavan all made the cut. Donovan, Hannover's Steve
Cherundolo and Beasley will be representing the US in their third World Cup.

Strikers Edson Buddle and Herculez Gomez are among 15 players featuring in
their first World Cup. Los Angeles Galaxy's Buddle has been in excellent
form in Major League Soccer while Gomez became the first American to lead a
foreign league goal-scoring chart with 10 goals for Mexican club Puebla.

Seventeen of Bradley's squad are based in Europe, including nine players
from Britain and four in the MLS.

Thursday,
3 June 2010 - Jozy Altidore has been taken to hospital for
a scan on his right ankle after being injured in training on Wednesday.
The 20-year-old, who spent last season on loan from Villareal at Hull, is
expected to play in his side's opening game with England on 12 June. "His
status is considered day-to-day. He
will undergo a fitness test on Friday to check his availability for the 5 June
(friendly) with Australia."

Sunday,
6 June 2010 - American fears over Jozy Altidore's fitness appear to have
eased after the Villarreal man returned to training. The 20-year-old, on
loan at Hull City last season, missed Friday's 3-1 warm-up win over Australia
due to an ankle injury sustained in training on Wednesday. But after
taking part in a five-a-side game on Sunday the first-choice striker will be
expected to face England. However, neither Altidore nor coach Bob Bradley
commented after the session. Los Angeles Galaxy's Edson Buddle, who scored
twice against Australia, is the favourite to deputise up front should Altidore
not be ready for the Group C clash against Fabio Capello's side in Rustenburg.
